Milestone Group Reshuffles Leadership

Former Milestone Group CEO Geoff Hodge will be executive chairman and president for North America, a newly created role that is aimed at providing support to grow the business in the region.

Hodge, who will be based in Boston, said the new leadership shows a natural progression for the company as it continues to grow.

“[This year] is going to be a significant year for Milestone Group, and this change ensures we are correctly positioned to support that,” Hodge said in a statement. We have had great success to date operating with a low profile supporting innovation in mission critical functions for our clients and we are now layering on top of that a new level of relationships with organizations looking to achieve big things in new ways.”

Roberts will be based in London.
